This is a great pose to use all the way through your pregnancy, but it’s especially useful during the last six weeks. Stretch out with Part 1, then relax with Part 2.

Part 1

• Sitting in Child’s Pose, place your palms on top of the ball
• Roll it forward until you can rest your forehead on the ball
• Breathe into the stretch through your arms, shoulders and spine as your pelvis widens
• Stay for a few rounds of the breath and come up slowly

Part 2

• Relax forward over the ball in Child’s Pose – knees wide apart and toes together
• Use a pillow on the ball if you need to
• Relax your arms, breathe and enjoy
